Analysis of LSD-41 Machinery Room Layout.

Abstract

Tentative layouts for the LSD-41 machinery rooms no. 1 and no. 2 have been developed by NAVSEA and by the J. J. Henry Company. Figures 1 and 2 provide approximate sketches of the NAVSEA layouts; and Figures 3 and 4, of the J. J. Henry layouts. A key factor involved in selecting one set of drawings over the other is the extent to which they conform to established human engineering principles and practices. The objectives of this analysis were to identify and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the NAVSEA and J. J. Henry layouts, and to recommend changes to eliminate, insofar as possible, the disadvantages.
